Static and kinematic experiments on EGNOS

Since February 2000, various static and kinematic tests have been performed at the Department of Civil Engineering, University of Trieste and Department of Engineering, University of Ferrara, to analyse the achievable positioning accuracies using the WADGPS (Wide Area Differential GPS) corrections transmitted by Geostationary Satellites. In this paper, we report the most resent experiments using the ESTB(EGNOS System Test Bed) SIS (Signal In Space) from the Inmarsat III AOR-E Geostationary Satellite in static and kinematic mode, together with a static test using the WAAS (Wide Area Augmentation System) signal the Inmarsat III AOR-W Geostationary Satellite.
